Last year, the Great Lakes Restoration Initiative began producing a series of educational videos about invasive species in the Great Lakes for the National Park Service. New videos are being uploaded this spring, and you can watch the entire “Little Things, Big Problems” series here on Echo.
This video discusses invasive species in Lake Michigan and how they are affecting the food web and the health of birds.
I went to a natural resources meeting yesterday, you wouldn’t believe how many people don’t know that alewives eat the same zooplankton that we don’t want all these other invasives and the Asian Carp to eat. Met some really nice people tho!
